CM16 Crazy Moose: Open/Closed/Silent "e"

Description: Fronts of cards have a word and a number. A colorful illustration of a “Crazy Moose” is on the backs of all cards. Games can be played with 2-4 players.

Activities: Prior to playing the games, students can sort cards by open, closed, and silent "e" syllable types, as they place them under category cards. When playing Crazy Moose, students match the syllable type or the number on the card, to the overturned card on the top of the discard pile. Crazy Moose cards allow students to change the sound to be played. Decks can also be used for reading and spelling drills. Similar to Crazy Eights.
